Marwar-Udaipur amongst 5 meter gauge lines to be preserved by Railways

70- km Marwar-Udaipur metre-gauge railway section falling in the bio-diversity sanctuary of Todgarh Raoli has been identified as one of the five meter gauge stretches that will be preserved as heritage stretches by Indian Railways.

Earlier Railways had a plant to shift all these routes as broad gauge lines. The lines to be preserved include 30-km-long Mhow-Kalakund rail line in Madhya Pradesh that runs through the picturesque hills and the valleys of the Vindhyachal mountain range draws tourists to the Patalpani waterfall. Preserved pass also includes 171-km Nanpara-Mailani section in Uttar Pradesh that runs through the Dudhwa national park.

50 km line passing through Gir forest will also be preserved. Also under preservation consideration is the 120km section in Assam in the hill section of North Cachar Hill district. This line is unique for numerous tunnels it goes through and still stands out as architectural marvel.
